BMW 540i V8-4.4L - Check Engine Light is on - Santa Ana, California
I had a big engine job done on my car a couple of weeks before calling "YourMechanic". Check engine light came on soon after. Chris identified the problem immediately and strongly suggested I take the car back to the shop that did the job to have the problem corrected. Chris explained what is happening with the car and wrote up the problem so I can tell the shop. He even provided his personal contact information in case the shop had questions, which is awesome. Thanks Chris.

Hi I have 97 BMW 540i, replaced radiator, water pump, and thermostat.. and a engine temperature sensor and it is still overheating
Answered by Jeff
The heater not working in some cases may be related to the overheating problem you are also having. This may be due to a faulty heater blower motor or potentially a bad heater core (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/heater-is-not-working-inspection). As you may know, the...
